Painting, watercolour, Each in His Narrow Cell Forever Laid, Appleby Church, St Lawrence's Curch, Appleby-in-Westmorland, Westmorland, by Samuel Bough, 1878.
Appleby Church and its graveyard. The church and gravestones have been blocked in with colourwash; the sky, and trees to left of composition, are more highly finished; the foreground remains blank. The work is unfinished. Bough continued to execute works depicting Cumbrian subjects whilst he lived in Scotland.
This was the artist's last work; it was executed plein-air 5.8.1878. Bough died in November.
